PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Greyhound Racing (10 September 2024)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, if he will make an assessment of the potential merits of banning greyhound racing.

Asked by:
Liz Jarvis (Liberal Democrat)

Answer

The Government is aware of the concerns that surround greyhound racing. However, we also recognise that the sport is already attempting to address many of these issues. The Government is monitoring the sport’s progress and should further measures and protections be required we will, of course, consider options which are targeted, effective, and proportionate.
